Retro console and games thread

Been looking through a few charity shops and a carboot/market today and got a few decent things

there was a guy selling books and i wasnt going to bother having a look on his stall then on the way past he had a little sign games £1 so i grabbed these

i then went to a charity shop and picked these up,they are mint condition and for 50p a game i might just use them for replacement cases.I got a bonus in the driver game because its got Driver 1 and 2 inside and the manuals ect on all the games are untouched

the last thing i got which i am chuffed with is a gameboy colour i seen this a few weeks ago in the same shop but it was £19.99 but i thought it was a little expensive but today they had it at £9.99 so i snapped it up,came with all the things you see in pic,charger ,mag glass and simpsons.It was in a glass case in the shop window like this and i didnt even see a game in the back of it until she got it out for me and i noticed a GOLD game in the gameboy and when i paid for it i had a look once i got outside and it had this in it :)

Looking to offload an Amiga A500+, accessories, games, Deluxe Paint 3 etc. Can I tempt anybody for twenty quid (collect only from Cambridge) if I were to put it in MM? Would love to keep it but have no room :(

Deal of the century (well to me anyway), got the games above for the grand total cost of.... a coffee, I had mentioned at work how the PS3 was getting ignored in favour of the Super Nintendo, today one of my work mates turns up with a box containing 9 games including the three above and despite my pointing out he could get some money for them he wouldn't accept anything more than a coffee.

Have been after Super Punch Out since I got the Snes so extremely chuffed atm, the other 6 games were Mario Kart, SF2, Mickey Mania, Donkey Kong Country, Bubsy and Zool all unboxed, I already have the ones I would have any interest in from those so just going to sell them and give the profits to my donator as thanks.
 
I tried that tactic at work let everyone know your wanting old consoles, lass I work with I told I had went to car boot sale on Sunday looking for old games , she said oh just the other week we cleaned loft and threw a super Nintendo with about ten games out.

I haven't slept for 3 days lol
 
Started collecting again, slowly but surely. I had a shed load of stuff in a dedicated retro games room which I unfortunately got rid of 95% of it earlier this year.

Aside from a few bits I got all of it from local ads, didn't touch Ebay this time around. Some absolutely amazing big bundles for dirt cheap - gutted I sold it all off now....

Anyway, here's to the future - picked up mint Doom on the PS1 and nm Pokemon ruby (boxed) on the GBA for £1.50 each in a charity shop today :)
 
After a disappointing car boot trip today, only picked up donald duck as PK for 50p, I've gone mad on flebay. There was a very tacky looking dreamcast, loads of resellers asking for crazy prices and the normal sports titles.

I only need 7,8,9 to finish off my final fantasy collection now.

Thou its not retro, I picked up MGS 4 for 6 pounds from shop yesterday and that's finished off my MGS collection. :)
 
good lord, kingdom hearts games were a BARGAIN!

Watch tower that is an amazing collection there, nice one

.One.....2 words.....MINT PROBOTECTOR!
 
Wow !! A very nice mint looking Gunstar Heroes there. One of the very best games on the Megadrive I thought.
Treasure really put out some top quality games back in the day. *Pats one of the very best 2D side scrolling beat em ups ever... Guardian Heroes*
